Erie, Pa. - Automation Devices, Inc. (ADI) has just released the new 5500S Pan Feeder Hopper that can provide a controlled delivery of parts into small vibratory feeder bowls.
Featuring a ¼ cubic foot capacity, this design fulfills the need to automatically keep small feeder bowls filled to a controlled level.

The 5500S Hopper can operate on 115v or 220, 60Hz or 50Hz. A level control switch can be provided that will turn the unit off and on to provide a predetermined level of parts in the feeder bowl. The unit is fully adjustable in discharge height from 5 inches to 11 inches. The discharge tray overhangs the unit by 5 ¾ inches.
